  SIPC provides limited protection for digital assets held in Vanguard. While SIPC primarily covers traditional securities such as stocks and bonds, it also extends coverage to certain types of digital assets. However, it's important to note that SIPC protection for digital assets is limited compared to traditional securities. The maximum coverage amount for digital assets in Vanguard may vary depending on the specific circumstances and the type of assets held. It's recommended to consult with Vanguard or a financial advisor to understand the extent of SIPC protection for your digital assets.

  Yes, SIPC does offer some protection for digital assets held in Vanguard. However, it's crucial to understand that SIPC coverage for digital assets is not as comprehensive as it is for traditional securities. The maximum coverage amount for digital assets in Vanguard may be lower compared to other types of investments. It's advisable to review the terms and conditions provided by Vanguard and consult with a financial professional to assess the level of protection offered by SIPC for your specific digital assets.
